  • Patent number: 11917820
    Abstract: A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes forming an alternating stack that includes a lower multi-layered stack and an upper multi-layered stack by alternately stacking a dielectric layer and a sacrificial layer over a substrate, forming a vertical trench that divides the upper multi-layered stack into dummy stacks, and forming an asymmetric stepped trench that is extended downward from the vertical trench to divide the lower multi-layered stack into a pad stack and a dummy pad stack, wherein forming the asymmetric stepped trench includes forming a first stepped sidewall that is defined at an edge of the pad stack, and forming a second stepped sidewall that is defined at an edge of the dummy pad stack and occupies less area than the first stepped sidewall.
